摘要

A face recognition system including: a reading unit that reads identification information from a medium carried by an authentication subject; an image capturing unit that acquires an image; a face detection unit that detects, as a detected face image, a face image from the image acquired; a face matching unit that, when a registered face image associated with the identification information read by the reading unit is present, matches the detected face image against the registered face image and matches, against the registered face image, the detected face image captured before the reading unit reads the identification information; and a registration unit that, when the registered face image associated with the identification information read is not present, registers, as the registered face image, the detected face image before the reading unit reads the identification information.
